Chapter 35: Descendants of the Vikings
After a night of staying, the next morning, not long after dawn, Sam, who was the first to wake up, called us up. Seeing everyone looking at me together, the fat man opened his peculiar two bell-like eyes, I smiled embarrassedly, slowly got up from the makeshift tent, and thought about some problems last night, and fell asleep like that unconsciously, so that to this day, my head still feels a little pain.
After a brief breakfast, Sam took out a dilapidated map, on which he could vaguely see the marks of the English letters and some unintelligible signs. According to the map display, the blue piece is the ocean we passed through earlier, and then at the front of this ocean, there are three black dots, which should be the three islands we have seen before. Then there is a red thread on it, connecting the three islands straight together, and in the very center of the three islands, there is a large blue dot with the words "tendays" written on it. "Could it be that this island can only last ten days on land, and if it is ten days, the island will be buried again?" I thought so, and continued to look upward, and a large black arrow suddenly appeared from the big blue dot, leading to a blank space next to it, and strangely there was no obvious mark on the side.
Sam, as the person concerned, seemed to see this map for the first time, and his brows furrowed as if he was about to wring out water, "Strange, does it take something to make the invisible part of the map visible?" Needless to say, we looked at the map and knew very well that this was the general situation of the island, and that there was a blank space left on it, which was obviously the depiction of the final place we were going to.
Fortunately, there is the general direction of the island on the map, and the "little green grass" logo marked on it is obviously the forest in front of us, and in this forest, there is a big exclamation mark next to the "little green grass" logo on the map! I was surprised that the forest had survived the water, and looked even greener than on land.
Seeing this, several of us all felt in our hearts that there must be a different danger in the forest, waiting for us, so we each exchanged glances, with Sam taking the lead, three people standing on each wing, and the rest of the people followed, each holding a gun, and began to walk towards the forest.
How can it be so quiet! The fat man muttered in his mouth, and his head looked to the left and right from time to time. As the fat man said, the whole forest seemed unusually quiet, not even a single animal could be seen, and even more so that there was not even a trace of wind sound, the more so, the more inexplicable nervousness I felt in my heart.
At this time, on a tree in front of me, a black square flag was hung, which was not very clear because it was too far away. When we got closer, we suddenly saw that the black flag was painted on a huge black ship, and a burly man with a long sword in his hand stood on top of the sail. "Not good! This is the flag of the Viking pirates of yesteryear", as soon as Sam's voice fell, we were still in a state of shock, only to hear the "whoosh" sound began to louden, and nearly hundreds of people suddenly burst out from the trees in front of us, opened their hands, and shot at us.
All of a sudden, ten thousand arrows were fired. Zhang Yu waved his hand, suddenly rolled up a wind, his face turned pale again, and the arrow that changed the path suddenly fell to the side, and the black man Zag was still accidentally pierced in the leg by an arrow. "You go quickly, go quickly," Zag, the black man who fell to the ground, saw that he had no hope of leaving, and roared at us, while he was holding a pistol and facing the natives who had suddenly appeared.
Taking advantage of the moment when these natives were intimidated by the black Zag, we hurried to the side. Gradually, there were no pursuers behind, and everyone stopped one after another, and sat on the ground one after another, silent, and the atmosphere seemed unusually stiff.
I leaned under a tree, looking at the road we had come, and I still had a little palpitations in my heart, and I wondered if this island had been sinking to the bottom of the sea before. They certainly didn't live on this island before. By the way, they have lived here for a long time, and they must know the time of high tide, that is, they used to live on the three outer islands, and then came over, and when the tide fell, they returned to the original islands, and they were most likely the descendants of the Vikings in Sam's mouth.
Thinking of this, I can't help but smile bitterly at the corner of my mouth, such things can be encountered, and the black Zag falling into their hands must be more than lucky. "Guys, we have to save Zag" Zag's good friend Cool, who was extremely anxious at the moment, helped his unique high hat, and his eyes swept towards us all, "Who wants to go with me?"
There was silence for a few seconds, and Sam suddenly stood up, "No one is going to make a senseless sacrifice with you."
What the! Cool's face changed, his heart was furious, and he suddenly took out the sword pinned to his waist, and scolded: "Black monkey, I lost to you last time, it was when you took advantage of my defenselessness to let you succeed in the sneak attack, this time, dare to compare with me again, compare?" ”。 I was about to step forward to stop it, but before I could get up, Zhang Yu next to me suddenly grabbed my hand and shook his head straight at me.
At this moment, Sam kicked Coole, and Sam himself dodged to the side, and an arrow suddenly slashed through the back of Cool's head, with a piece of paper tied to the end of the arrow. Cool, who had eaten a dumb loss, saw Sam looking at himself silently, he had just eaten a big foot, but after all, he saved himself, and he didn't say much, so he had to stand next to him silently, with a depressed expression.
Sam, who was closest to the arrow, pulled the arrow off the tree, and untied the paper tied to it, only to see that the paper was written in crooked English, and some of them were marked with some special marks.
It's probably no fun, not to mention gold now, even if we don't even have a way back, where to find gold for those pirates, negotiations are hopeless, so we can only rescue Zag. "Who's going with me," Cool Cook, who was standing next to him, picked up the gun in his hand and shouted like this, and before he could take a few steps, Sam stepped over with a big foot and stopped the cool guy, "Don't go!" ”。
Black monkey, you have the ability to say it again! Seeing Sam stop himself again, the cool guy went straight to the gun on his waist. Sam, who was calm and calm, turned around and walked to the side, sat under a tree, and said lightly: "These natives will not execute him until very late, and when it gets dark, we will act together, I know where those natives are." Anyway, do you know where those natives are? ”。
Cool, who was asked, took his hand off at a loss, turned around, covered his hat, and fell straight under a tree, pretending to be asleep. I watched the farce of this scene, secretly recuperating my energy, and my intuition told me that there might be a hard rod fight at night. (To be continued.) )
